Olive Garden Italian Restaurant

Went as a 6th month anniversary dinner with my partner, and we were pleasantly surprised by their endless pasta event. They serve large portions as the beginner pasta, and smaller half-portions afterwards. The food was very fresh tasting and delicious. The staff was pleasant, albeit our personal server was a tad curt. Could have been she had a long day, of course. I will be returning the next time I am in Irvine.

My girlfriend and I went to Olive Garden and had an absolutely amazing experience! Our server, Julian, was the cherry on top of a fantastic meal. He was attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home. Now let's talk about the food. I ordered the Seafood Alfredo and I have to say, it was the best Alfredo I've ever had. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the seafood was fresh and flavorful. The portion size was generous, so much so that I had to take some home for later. My dining partner had the Chicken Parmigiana and it was equally delicious. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was just the right amount of tangy. It was served with a side of piping hot, perfectly cooked spaghetti. And let's not forget the breadsticks! They were warm, soft, and just the right amount of buttery. We couldn't stop eating them! To wash it all down, we tried the Bellini Peach-Raspberry Iced Tea and it was the perfect complement to our meal. It was sweet and refreshing, with just the right amount of fruity flavor. Olive Garden off of Alton Pkwy is Italian style goodness of taste and if you're lucky enough to have Julian as your server, you're in for a real treat!

Celebrated my friend’s Birthday lunch at Olive Garden. 🎂🍝🥗 This Irvine location is beautifully decorated. Love the artwork. - House Salad Good Ranch dressing - Breadsticks (so buttery) - Chicken Alfredo with added Broccoli Creamy, rich Parmesan cheese sauce. Delicious. Add broccoli for an additional charge. - Chicken and Shrimp Carbonara Loved this dish! Delicious! Very flavorful! Creamy rich sauce. Love the bacon and roasted red peppers in this dish. Cheesy. Pasta Al dente. Bring on the cheese 🧀 🤣

One of the best olive gardens I’ve been too. Food was all great and came out quickly. All staff was lovely as well. Our server with the curly hair and acrylic nails was one of the best waitress’s, she is very polite. We also had an issue using a giftcard and the manager helped us no problem and was very respectful as well. Overall great experience and will be returning again.

The Best Olive Garden experience I have ever had. The wait times were great, the service was even better & the food was amazing. I've never had such a fantastic steak at such an affordable price before. The cherry on top was the unlimited breadsticks and soup. I left the restaurant feeling happy and satisfied. I have gone back since & I will be back again!

Really liked the place! Had a weird smell inside the restaurant though, do not know what it was, but it was overpowering, just a faint smell. Service was great! We went there on a Saturday around 5:30 pm. Wait time was about 25 minutes. Mother’s Day was Sunday, so we celebrated a day early lol. Mana was our waitress and Kai brought our plates out. They were both excellent. Very friendly, professional, and helpful. We had a really good conversation with both of them when they had time of course. Food was delicious as usual, that is why we keep coming back. My wife asked for angle hair pasta instead of the regular (It was not an issue.) all the plates were well prepared, food quantity and quality were very good.

First time at this location having dinner with the kids and let me say from the moment we walked in we were greeted by two friendly hosts. They had a waiting time of about 40 minutes which I think it’s pretty normal wait time. When we got our table our server Lori came and greeted as well super friendly. Lori went beyond the excellent service, she made us feel as if we were her guests at her home. And well the food had a better taste than other locations we had been. We all enjoyed our time there. Will definitely go back and be requesting to have Lori as our server again, this lady deserves more than 5stars she also deserves a raise too. If many restaurants had a Lori the experience would be amazing. Thank you Lori my kids and I appreciate you and we will be back soon!
